Week 8 was a fun one, with several top games coming down to the wire. The top match-up of the week was the game between the then #5 Oklahoma Sooners (6-1) topping the then #9 TCU Horned Frogs (5-1) in overtime by a score of 26-20. With time running out, Kicker Brad Edwards drilled a 52 yard field goal to send the Sooners into OT. While the teams swapped TD's in overtime, Oklahoma proved to be just too much for the Horned Frogs and pulled out the win.

Not to be outdone, the then #10 Georgia Bulldogs (7-0) and the then #6 LSU Tigers (6-2) put on a show. Down 9 points with less than 1 minute left to play, the Bulldogs scored on a long TD pass, successfully recovered the onside kick, and then won the game with a 48 yard FG as time ran out. Crazy finish.

Other notable performances/games:

Mississippi State RB Ramon Flores not only had the top individual rushing game of the week (220 yards), he took the overall rushing lead with 1377 yards.
New Mexico State DE Eric Schneider made the most of his 4 tackles, recording 4 sacks on the day and giving him 8 sacks on the season.
Army QB Charles Stone put on a passing show, throwing for 458 yards and 4 TD's.
Boise State moved to 7-1 on the season with a 41-17 win over BYU. How are they not ranked in the Top 25...?
Miami (7-0) needed a 17 point 4th quarter to top Wake Forest (3-4) to remain unbeated. They are so overrated!
